Who we are

 

 

Spark & Pow-R Fest (“Spark & Pow-R Fest,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) respects your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we handle personal information provided through the Spark & Pow-R Fest website.

Spark & Pow-R is partnered with Music Matters Club, a registered Canadian charity.

 

 

Information We Collect

 

 

The Spark & Pow-R Fest website is designed to collect only limited personal information that visitors voluntarily provide.

We may collect:

• your name

• your email address

• your phone number

For example, you may provide this information when you sign up to receive Spark & Pow-R Fest updates or contact us through the website.

 

 

Donations

 

 

The Spark & Pow-R Fest website may provide access to donations through PayPal. Donation transactions are processed through PayPal and may involve information being collected and handled by PayPal. Spark & Pow-R does not directly request or require your full payment-card or banking information through the festival website’s email or contact forms.

Payment information is subject to PayPal’s own privacy practices and policies. Please refer to PayPal’s privacy policy for information about how PayPal handles personal information in connection with its services.

We aim to collect only information that is reasonably necessary for these purposes.

The Spark & Pow-R Fest website may use cookies and similar technologies to support website functionality and improve the visitor experience.

 

 

How We Share Information

 

 

We do not sell or rent your personal information.

Information submitted through the website may be accessible to authorized people involved in operating Spark & Pow-R when it is necessary to respond to you, communicate with you, or administer the festival.

 

 

We may also use service providers or website technologies that are necessary to operate the website, process submissions, provide communications, or support website functionality.

 

 

We may disclose information where required or permitted by law.

 

 

How We Use Your Information

 

 

We may use information you provide to:

• respond to questions or requests

• follow up with you when you contact us

• send Spark & Pow-R Fest updates, announcements, and information

• communicate information about Spark & Pow-R and related activities (e.g. raffles, show schedules, etc.)

Email Communications

 

When you sign up for Spark & Pow-R Fest updates, the name and email address you provide are transmitted to us through the website so that we can receive your request and communicate with you.

You may ask us to stop sending non-essential email communications at any time by contacting us. Where an unsubscribe option is provided in an email, you may also use that option.

 

 

Electronic communications are handled in accordance with applicable Canadian requirements, including Canada’s Anti-Spam Legislation where it applies.

 

 

How Long We Retain Your Data

 

 

If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This is so we can recognize and approve any follow-up comments automatically instead of holding them in a moderation queue.

 

 

We retain personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes for which it was collected, or as needed for legitimate administrative, legal, accounting, or charitable purposes.

 

 

Protecting Your Information

 

We take reasonable measures to protect personal information in our care against unauthorized access, use, disclosure, or loss.

The Spark & Pow-R website may contain links to third-party websites and services, including PayPal. Articles on this site may include embedded content (e.g. videos, images, articles, etc.). Embedded content from other websites behaves in the exact same way as if the visitor has visited the other website.

These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with that embedded content, including tracking your interaction with the embedded content if you have an account and are logged in to that website. Third-party websites and services have their own privacy practices, terms, and policies. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of websites that we do not operate.
